LEMON BUTTER CURRY CATFISH

My mom once owned a stake in a catfish farm called Delta Pride. It stalled and sputtered and eventually went belly-up (excuse the pun). But we did get some great catfish recipes along the way, like this one from The Catfish Institute. Cheap, easy and good! The buttery, lemony rice is irresistible!

BROILED FISH WITH LEMON CURRY BUTTER



Broiled Fish With Lemon Curry Butter image

Broiled fish fillets topped with a little butter and a squirt of lemon is a quick, easy weeknight staple. But when the butter is spiked with plenty of garlic, a jolt of curry powder and piquant fresh ginger, then brightened with fresh herbs, it becomes a superb, company-worthy dish that still cooks in under 10 minutes flat. Use your favorite fish here; any mild fillet will allow the buttery sauce to shine.

Categories     Main Dish Catfish

Time 55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds catfish fillets
4 cups water
2 medium onions, finely chopped
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons curry powder
2 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
4 cups hot cooked rice

Steps:

  • Rinse fillets under cold water and cut into 2-inch pieces.
  • Place catfish into a medium saucepan and add water, onions, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer until fish is tender but not breaking apart, about 8 minutes. Transfer fish to a serving platter using a slotted spoon and cover with foil to keep warm.
  • Bring the cooking liquid in the saucepan to a boil; continue to boil until it reduces to 1 cup, then keep warm over low heat.
  • Combine flour, curry, and butter in a small bowl. Mix with a fork or fingertips to form a smooth paste. Roll teaspoon-sized bits of paste into balls.
  • Return the cooking liquid to a simmer. While stirring slowly and continuously, drop the balls into the liquid one at a time, letting each one dissolve before adding the next. Cook until the sauce returns just to a boil and thickens to the consistency of gravy, about 5 minutes. Check the seasoning.
  • Pour the gravy over the fish and boiled rice, sprinkle some parsley on top, and serve hot.
